Ozzy Osbourne Confirms New Solo Album Plans

(Classic Rock) Ozzy Osbourne intends to make his next solo album as soon as Black Sabbath’s farewell tour is over, he’s said. The vocalist has begun gathering ideas for the follow-up to 2010’s Scream, and aims to get into the studio as quickly as possible once he’s completed his Sabbath duties on February 4 next year.

Ozzy tells Metro: “I’m currently playing around with some song ideas. I have a few things jotted down, and once Black Sabbath is off the road, I’ll be heading into the studio with my band to get the songs recorded. Once it’s all in the can you can be sure to see me back on the road again.”

He adds: “The whole tour has been an emotional roller coaster. Though the one I am most aware of is the very last show ever in Birmingham, England. I’m sure it will be pretty emotional – but everything has to come to an end at some point, and it’s been an incredible journey.”
